Our reporter Shumela Ahmed made this podcast of Khaliq Ansari, secretary of the Noor Mosque, talking to media from all over the world after the police carried out controlled explosions on a silver saloon car found in the mosque car park. The car is being scrutinised by forensic officers as part of the investigation into the 30 June terrorist attack on Glasgow Airport.

Southside Media is a not-for-profit social enterprise [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Social_enterprise#Social_enterprise_in_the_British_context]. It's the first community interest company [http://www.cicregulator.gov.uk/] in Scotland set up with the aim of creating strong, sustainable, independent, local media. Southside Media believes in strong communities and we think that the people who live and work in a place are most likely to know what's best for their community. But we know that for them to get active, get organised and make changes for the better, they need to get good local news and information. In December 2005 we started publishing the G41 Community Newspaper. It's a monthly paper serving the communities of Dumbreck, Pollokshields, Strathbungo, Crossmyloof, Shawlands and Langside in the G41 postcode area of the southside of Glasgow. We also publish the G41 Community Website at g41.org.uk [http://www.g41.org.uk]. In August 2007 we started publishing the G42 Community Newspaper, serving Govanhill, Crosshill, Toryglen, Mount Florida and Battlefield. We also publish the G42 Community Website at g42.org.uk [http://www.g42.org.uk].
